Well, everyone should decide for themselves. I'm for it if a person is injured, incurably sick, and the like. I have a family member who has a microdeletion on chromosome 12....he has sensory and neurological issues. It would be nice to have tech help him. He's such an angel.

....I also suffer from 3 chronic illnesses....I don't know if I am desperate enough to allow tech in me....don't trust the maker, don't trust the treater, don't trust the govn't.

We would have to do it sooner or later. Human beings just aren't strong enough or intelligent enough to face the challenges that our society will eventually have to go through in the future (e.g. science, space exploration, deep sea exploration, peace keeping, managing the economy, etc).

Our population is increasing at a pretty alarming rate, this alone can make things really bad for everyone. We'll have to find many new ways to feed people and keep them happy. Failing to do so can result in conflict and civil unrest. That to needs to be dealt with.

Human society is fundamentally evolving. The moment a society stops changing, that's when it begins to die. In my opinion, we wouldn't have a choice in the matter. If we want our society to change for the better, then we have to improve our mental and somatic capabilities and using technology is the only way other than natural selection.

Even if some of us don't want it, there is nothing we can do to stop it. The process has already begun. We have already started developing technologies that are going to improve our bodies. We have steroids, organ transplants, artificial body parts, electronic implants and a host of other technological advancements that help us restore parts of our bodies that have been injured permanently and sometimes even improve some aspect of our bodies. It's making many of us really happy and if you don't like it find someone who has a pacemaker, tell him/her that it's wrong to have one and see how he/she reacts.

It's true that doing so will create new problems, like increasing lack of privacy, increasing difficulty in managing competitions, having this technology falling into the wrong hands, misusing this technology, managing this technology, etc. but so far, with technology, the benefits have outweighed the risks and this is likely to be true in the future.

Why not? I'd like to have my brain mirrored to a blank brain
And also an exoskeleton made from durable metals thats surgically implanted over my spine with artificial muscle-tissue so it can be moved more easy. To make it complete add some accesories to the spine like a pair of wings, tail and extra arms (Of course implanted in my nervous system).

Cybernetic limbs have been created. There are currently two people with them. One man has an artificial robotic arm; attached to his muscle system. He sad that it took him about twenty seconds to start moving the arm. A woman has an artificial foot. She is participating in races next year to prove the unit's durability.
